I bought a set of Morgan’s Tarot cards back in the sixties when I was a teenager - probably fifteen years old. I bought mine at the Shambala bookstore in Berkeley on Telegraph Avenue. They were plain white cards with line drawings, so I got out my felt pen set and colored most of them in. That makes my set unique.

Morgan Robbins originally created the cards for his own use only, but was convinced to allow them to be published. They are whimsical and representative of sixties-hippie thinking. Cards include Far Out, Marijuana, Bliss, and Somewhere There’s an Energy Leak. Illustrations were done by Darshan Chorpash and the cards were printed in Belgium.

Now for the bad news and the good news.

The bad news is that these amazing cards are no longer published. I wish they were! I just saw a set for sale for $750 on Amazon!

The good news is that you can deal them out right here on the internet!

“Face piles of trials with smiles…” - Moody Blues, from In The Beginning.

A lot of our difficulties, whether they be spiritual, mental, emotional, or physical, come from having bad attitudes. If we’re often thinking negative things about the world we live in and the people who share this world with us, it is bound to darken our auras and have a negative effect on us. In fact, our negative thoughts about other people or events have a far greater impact on us than on anyone else. And if there really is someone out there trying to make us miserable, the only way to escape from that misery is to rise above it by thinking good and positive things, feeling spiritually exalted, and not allowing ourselves to be sucked into the pit of despair. This is what I speak of when I write about attitude healing.

A long time ago, in December 1990, I was homeless - a single mother with two babies ages 7 months and 19 months, and a seventeen year old. I was an escapee from a relationship in which I was battered. I left an extremely bad housing situation hoping to find something better, and was without a home for over a month. At the same time one of my neighbors who had become a close friend did the same thing. She had a four year old son at that time. We stayed in hotels and some nights I even stayed in my car. We both applied for new rentals and hers became available sooner than mine did. She offered to let me stay with her until my rental was ready since she knew I was in as deep a financial bind as she was.

Everything went well for us for a few days until Christmas Eve, and then the stress got to be too much for my friend, and she started yelling at me because she didn’t like living with my teenager. I quickly gathered my things, not knowing where I’d take my three children, and prepared to leave her home since that’s what she wanted. Before I left I turned to her wondering what to say, then suddenly felt the cares of the world lift off of me. Suddenly my heart was flying above the situation. I honestly felt like a white bird flying through the sky, filled with compassion and love. I expressed that love to her in the kindest words I could manage, acknowledging her stress and prior hospitality, and promising my friendship was still available when she was ready for it. (And yes, we did continue as friends in the months to come.)

That moment wasn’t the first time I’d experienced that “flying above” feeling of loving despite the hostile expressions of others, but it is the time I always think back to - the time I remember as my most conscious moment of emerging from the web of emotional entanglement into the freedom of spiritual, world-embracing, unconditional love.

I thereby challenge you to allow yourself to be filled with love no matter what terrible things are happening in the world or in your life. You will free yourself from stress and negativity as the healing joy of blissful love permeates your being and gives you the peace you need for health and well-being.

Heal your attitude; heal your life!

Tonight I’m alone - something I’m not used to. I have been a mom to minor children for over 34 years now. But my youngest is 17, and all the others are adults living elsewhere.

My boyfriend, Bob, went to bed in his van outside at about 7pm tonight, and Aaron (the 17-year-old) is spending the night with a friend. So here I am, alone, and I decided I wanted to watch The Secret. The problem was, The Secret was lost. (Does this sound familar?)

I knew my teenage son had watched it a few times, so I looked in his bedroom since I knew it wasn’t in my living room. I couldn’t find it, so I phoned him at his friend’s home.

“Look in the stack of games on top of my TV,” he suggested.

“I’ve looked through them,” I said.

“You have?” He sounded surprised that I’d been checking out his bedroom. His bedroom was decently straightened up, so it wasn’t too scary in there tonight.

“It isn’t there,” I said.

“Well, I can come home tomorrow and help you look for it,” he said, “but think positively! You can find it.” Apparently he’s learned some lessons from his viewing of The Secret.

I liked his suggestion and did some positive affirmations. “I AM finding The Secret. I HAVE The Secret.” Then I decided to use my psychic powers and get a vision of the DVD, to experience the environment it was in. I saw it in a box, packed and stored away.

I went back into Aaron’s room. Now despite how nice the rest of the room looks tonight, the closet is intimidating - packed with clutter and boxes that should have been sorted through five years ago, though I didn’t have the energy for it then. I decided to leave it for tomorrow.

But the feeling persisted. I wanted to watch The Secret tonight! So I used my psychic powers again and this time saw it inside a box, facing the front of the box.

This time I went into Aaron’s room and moved the clothing rack he has his clean school clothes on. This is right in front of the closet because the actual closet is way too cluttered and full for clothing to be hung!

I found The Secret in the second box I looked into - and it was exactly where I had visioned it to be - facing the front side of the box. I was amazed, and knew I had to share this experience with you.

So I watched The Secret tonight. I got a lot of positive feelings and inspirations from it, and before long I knew that for me, the best way to watch The Secret is with my journal on my lap so I can jot down any inspirations that come to me.
